Grilled Stuffed Flank Steak With Salami, Fontina, Parmesan, And Bread Crumbs Recipe
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 scallions, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
- 4 ounces thinly sliced salami, cut into 1/4-inch-wide matchsticks
- 8 ounces Italian Fontina, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
- 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
- 1/2 cup toasted bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 whole flank steak, 2 to 2 1/2 pounds, trimmed of excess fat
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- In a medium bowl, combine the garlic, scallions, parsley, salami, Fontina, Parmigiano, and bread crumbs and mix well. Add 1/4 cup of the olive oil and mix well with your hands or a spoon. Set aside.
- Lay steak on a cutting board with grain running parallel to the edge of the counter. Trim left and right edges to form a clean rectangle and reserve scraps for another use. Hold steak flat with your non-knife hand and, with a sharp boning knife, carefully butterfly the steak, leaving the back edge attached by 1/2- to 1/4-inch of meat. Open up steak and flatten the seam gently with your hand to form a large perfect rectangle.
- Season steak on exposed side with salt and pepper. Spread the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the beef, leaving a 1/2-inch border along the side furthest from you; press and gently pack the stuffing mixture onto the beef to keep it in place. Starting from the side nearest to you, roll up the meat like a jelly roll, pressing any stuffing that falls out of the ends back into the roll.
- Tie the beef tightly with twine, spacing the ties evenly every 1 1/2 inches. Insert a skewer through each piece of twine. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut between the ties to make the pinwheels. Season with salt and pepper.
- When all the charcoal is lit and covered with gray ash, pour out and spread the coals evenly over half of coal grate. Alternatively, set half the burners of a gas grill to high heat. Set cooking grate in place, cover grill and allow to preheat for 5 minutes.
- and
- the grilling grate. Place the pinwheels on the hot side of the grill and cook without moving until well charred on first side, about 3 minutes. Flip steaks and char second side, about 3 minutes longer. Transfer to cooler side of grill, cover, and cook until an instant read thermometer inserted into the center registers 120u0b0F for medium-rare or 130u0b0F for medium. Transfer to a platter, let rest for five minutes, and serve.
